Also:

- The Driver needs to have its release date changed to 7/23/13
- At Long Last Love can be removed altogether since it was released via normal retailers instead of screenarchives.com
- The April-June releases can be added to the regular release list

I wish he was signing The Driver instead.

I agree.

When can we preorder the Driver and the John Ford film?

[Arkadin]

The Driver pre-order could be as early as tomorrow.
other films are always roughly 1 month before release date.
btw: great to have the OP info updated! thanks to all that helped make that happen especially Blu Titan!

I did a little research on MINDWARP and have come to the following conclusion: I really want this on Blu-ray!. I was vaguely aware of the film but all I knew about it was it went direct-to-video in the early 90's and Angus Scrimm (Phantasm) was in it. I didn't know it was a post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller, a genre I love. Now I'm stoked for this. Anybody here a fan of the film that can help finish selling me on it?

Twilight Time has confirmed via their Facebook wall that The Driver will initiate pre-orders next Wednesday, July 3rd.

I wouldn't get too excited.

It's certainly not a bad film. I rented it twice back in the early 90s and it held my attention back then. But I haven't thought of it very much since.

I MIGHT consider picking it up, but I won't be devastated if I miss it, either.

I've bought quite a few from them with standard delivery and none have gone missing. There are those who have said on other threads that selecting the more expensive shipping attracts Customs fees but I have had none on standard. If you are buying with a credit card and do not receive an item you should complain to the card provider if the retailer is unhelpful, irrespective of how the item was shipped.

Is there anywhere else to buy Twilight Time's releases that is similar in price, but better on shipping?

Not that I'm aware of. Screen Archives list them on Amazon if they're not sold out. The slight increase in the price of the discs and the shipping combined actually makes everything a little more expensive if bought that way. The only advantage would be that I think if you have an Amazon gift card you can use them to buy your stuff then.

Anyone know how well/poorly Hard Times has been selling? They knocked it out of the park on that one IMHO.

I asked TT on Facebook how it was selling and they replied that is was selling "quite briskly". So it sounds like it is selling beyond expectations. Same for Leave Her to Heaven.

this still needs to be done in the OP.
also October 8th releases are under an October 10th heading.
other than those 3 issues everything looks correct I believe.
